Daniels was one of three people arrested at the club, but it's unclear who the other two were. Columbus Police confirmed to the Columbus Dispatch the law is rarely enforced in the state of OH despite being on the books for the past 11 years.

Daniels was scheduled to perform at Sirens Gentlemen's Club on Wednesday and Thursday, according to its website. A person who answered the phone at the club declined to comment.

Ms Daniels says she was paid $130,000 (£98,000) shortly before the 2016 presidential election to keep quiet about her alleged sexual encounter with Mr Trump.

She is trying to free herself from a non-disclosure agreement signed before the election, and suing over a "defamatory" tweet by the U.S. president earlier this year. The White House has said Trump denies an affair happened.

Avenatti said Daniels will enter a "not guilty" plea and won't appear in court for her arraignment at 9:30 a.m. Friday morning at Franklin Municipal Court.

Porn actress Stormy Danielswas arrested Thursday and charged with violating a controversial and conservative-backed OH state law called the Community Defense Act, which prevents adult dancers from touching customers, and vice versa. He initially said he used his own money to pay Daniels and was not reimbursed by Trump.
